The Ukraine Black Sea grain deal has been extended for two more month, Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan said on Wednesday, one day before Russia could have quit the pact over obstacles to its grain and fertiliser exports, APA reports citing Reuters.
The flow of ships through the corridor had been grinding to a halt during the last few days with the deal apparently set to expire on Thursday.
Earlier on Wednesday, the last remaining ship registered to travel through the corridor had left a Ukrainian port.
